three whole games in a row it fired its head coach, firmly placing the interim tag on replacement Dominique Ducharme. A rather excessive reaction, but this is Montreal where it is win every game and every shift in every game or bust. There’s been a lot of bust in the past twenty-eight years. But I digress.
